LIVING COLOUR Guitarist To Perform With MY ID In Toronto

January 22, 2008

LIVING COLOUR guitarist Vernon Reid will join Toronto electric jazz band MY ID for a special concert at the Revival Music Lounge in Toronto, Ontario on February 27. Reid, known for his guitar virtuosity and groundbreaking work in rock, jazz, fusion and R&B, has worked with some of music's most talented artists, including Mick Jagger, Bill Frisell, Carlos Santana, PUBLIC ENEMY, Garland Jefferies and James Blood Ulm.

MY ID's debut CD features Reid, ALLMAN BROTHERS bassist Oteil Burbridge and singer Hassan Hakmoun. Reid will play the entire show with current MY ID lineup.

Toronto-based drummer Aubrey Dayle formed MY ID as a group that pools on its musicians' collective experiences in jazz, rock, world beat, R&B and hip hop. The result is melodic songs, great rhythms and virtuosic instrumentalism.

A portion of ticket sales will be donated to the Lupus Canada. Normally the body's immune system makes proteins called antibodies to protect the body against viruses, bacteria and other foreign material. With Lupus, the immune system cannot tell the difference between foreign substances and its own cells and tissues and makes antibodies directed against itself.
